I know I am going to regret not getting in on these, especially how much I love my Regulators and the Flat grind best.
Well maybe I will keep an eye on the Exchange! I see a green one in your future Seth, you know you can't resist. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />

-Stan Don't hold your breath,IIRC ganza offerings don't make it to the store. Maybe a show for some,but the mini regs were in limited supply from the getgo. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> We can always keep our <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crossfingers.gif" alt="" />.

BTW, does anyone else notice that faint Hamon line that shows up on the blade about two thirds of the way up? It may be nothing but it's there, it stands out slightly more in person. I know Dan said it was through hardened, though... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> No mater it kinda adds something to it. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> I dunno...looks to me like where the paint overlaps from spraying the spine, while trying to make the camo job look continuous. The primary reason is that in the light tan colored sections, it appears to be a concave edge-line, such as to reflect the start of an air-brush application (circle). Can you see a true Hamon line through paint?

46 of 300 and the blade is covered in scratches!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/banghead.gif" alt="" />
If I EVER spent that much money on a block of shiny INFI I would worship it not use it!! Sacrilege. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" />
Very cool Mini Regulator. I was shocked to see it overshadowed by the S-6.
The Dessert motif is a solid winner! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />
Now remebber... don't use it! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
Peace.

I actually got that SFNO LE in a trade. I'd wanted a regular SFNO for a long time, and I love the smooth hand finished handles on that one. It just didn't seem right to just let it sit unused and unloved, it was made to be used, even it it is a purty LE, so I decided that the best thing I could do is show it some love and use that baby! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
Funny thing is that even though I really like it, I still like the NMSFNO a little better as a all around user, but the SFNO is still a great knife itself. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Oh, and I'll probably use that 6.5 Reg eventually, but not right away. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> Except for patterning of course. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

I get it now Jeff. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />
It really is a beautiful blade to be sure. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />
The "N" is more stout and longer right? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

Very cool Mini Regulator. I was shocked to see it overshadowed by the S-6. Overshadowed? I was thinking the exact opposite... Much love for the 6.5! I am giddy about getting my hands on mine. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
